[Gyfford's Bridge, Southeast Embankment]

The forest has been cleared away from the approach of this bridge, allowing room for a wide abutment that supports an embankment that arcs over the ravine in the Mistwood Forest floor. Granite and quartzite are layered in a cobblestone pattern, leading upward to a deck supported entirely from the stone construction on each side.

Madigan says, "Xadon, your wife can be here on parole but you cannot. I would ask that you step out of Therengia or agree to abide by her parole and agreement to leave after the concert."

Xadon waves his colorful wand around in the air, trailing a fountain of orange sparks in a zig-zag pattern that leaves a glowing afterimage in its wake.

A tragedy distraught
The weary traveler could nare half a pint reap"

A furrowed brow, a steady gaze, a smirk filled his face
He placed his stone cobbled and round into the foundation
A cumulation slotted
He turned around with pride, the last stone in place"
